at all whether, the subject is native or

play successful is Its human Interest
Before setting to work on his subject
let the librettist ask himself, "Would
this subject as an opera subject appeal
to German, Italian, French and English
hearers who have no sympathy for the
subject almply because it is American?"
If It has no human Interest it will be
a failure. ; The shipwrecked anarchist

' Washington, D, C, July 30. The dig
ging of tha Panama canal nas reversed
the condition regarding tabor which con
fronted the United States at the outset
of tha big task. ,Ko longer, according
to the reports from the Istnmus, is it
necessary to send agents abroad to eon-
tract for labor. Ueepite ttie great num
iber needed for the work, voluntary lm-
migration irom vtreece. luuy, oimm,
Costa Rica. Cuba, Columbia and Ven
ezuela now is sufficient to supply all
demand for the big force.
' The Volume of Immigration In the
case of the European laborers has in
creased nearly 1000 per cent, and in the
case of the West Indians, over 60 per
cent, aa Compared with the first, six
months of 1909.
pearly every vessel sailing from ; a
foreign port brings an additional lot of
laborers, and within the past few
months immigration among the Greeks
and Italians has been steadily increas
ing. As near as can be estimated about
60 per cent of the steerage passengers'
from Europe at the present time are
Spaniards, while the. remaining 60 per
cent Is more or less equally divided be
tween Greek and Italians.
Formerly the stowaway class consti
tuted quite a factor In the Immigration
movement and there Is a case on record
where a vessel arrived at Colon with
288. stowaways on board, including a
number of women. At that time laborers
were In demand on the canal works,
and under the agreement with the Re
public! of Panama respecting tha Impor
tation of labor, the stowaways were al
low; to land without the requisite
amount of cash,' and a large number of
them went to work on the canaL For
some time past however, ; stowaways
have been returned vtd the " countries
from which they embarked,, which has
discouraged the-practice to a great ex
tent nd caused steamship officials to
be more alertf Stowaways have been
especially numerous on the islands of
Barbadoes, stealing on deck unseen, or
going on board on some fictitious er
rand and biding themselves as the op.
portunity offered while the vessel lay
at anchor on cargo.
With tha present surplusage of Euro
pean labor on tha isthmus, the commis
sion has been compelled to hold to tha

The tour " of the princes will last at
least a year, perhaps longer. They will
visit South Africa, ' India, Australia,
and Canada, spending some time in each
of tqesa great empires within the em?
pire. . 1
While tn -Canada,4 "tha 'present fdea
of the' king Is to arrange the itinerary
of the princes so that they will be able
to see soma ,of 'ths great . American
cities; Just' whlch f American points
will be touched. It Is ef course impos
sible to say yet. While King George
does not hold the . Individual , American
In as high esteem as did his late father,
he Is fully alive to tha political Import
ance of fostering the most friendly feel
ing possible i between the two j great
branches of the jAnglo-Saxbtt race. : He
is convinced that a visit- to America by
the little princes will do much to ad
vance this friendship and It Is for this
reason he plans the American trip.
